Just wondering, Korean Plastic Surgery vs Japanese Plastic Surgery, which is a better choice? Korea is so famous for plastic surgery, but what about Japan? Are surgeons there experienced? Anyone has experience?

I don't think Japan's famous for plastic surgery. Plastic surgery is not very popular in Japan. But look at Korea, the huge demand makes the surgeons rich of experience. I still think Korean plastic surgery is a better option. There are many information on Korean plastic surgery (clinic/surgeon/surgery reviews), but Japanese plastic surgery is more mysterious to me.

Yeah, plastic surgery is not that popular in Japan. But I've heard that they're very good at anti-aging therapies and skin care.

I think everyone who wants plastic surgery in Japan just flies up to Seoul for it. I've never heard of Japanese plastic surgery being exceptional in any way.

I have heard too much positive feedback about Korea to consider going anywhere else. it is at the top of my list. I really don't think you will find better.

I think you're right. I just read the news that Japanese women couldn't go back to their country after going to Korea for plastic surgery. They just look like two different person.

I live in Japan! Plastic surgery is popular here, but mostly things like breast agumentation, facelifts, and double eyelid surgery. It's not nearly on the scale of popularity as Korea. That said, for the results I want, I think Korea is the better choice

I have heard that now Korean plastic surgery clinics send foreign patients with a letter saying they got plastic surgery in Korea because so many of them no longer look like their passport photos! Which is good, you know, at least they are addressing the issue . . . But it's kind of crazy.

Also, perhaps the standards of beauty are different everywhere, so maybe look into the doctors too.

That is true!

Also, for the quotes I've seen, Korea is much more affordable option for me.
